About this map

Lake Chickasha dominates the southeastern quadrant of this Caddo County landscape, its irregular shoreline shaped by the inundation of Spring Creek and several smaller tributaries. This late 1960s survey captures the area as a developed recreation and water resource, highlighting specific amenities like the Picnic Area and Trailer Park along the lake's eastern banks. The surrounding terrain is organized into large named sections, including White Bread, Jefferson, Gracemont, and Lincoln, reflecting the township and range grid system of central Oklahoma.

Local social anchors are clearly marked, providing valuable data for family historians. The Wichita Mission school sits near the southern border, while rural worship centers like Spring Creek Ch and Rock Springs Ch serve the dispersed farming community. Waterways such as White Bread Creek, Stinking Creek, and Sugar Creek carve through the landscape, defining the drainage patterns that influenced early settlement and road placement in this part of the state.
